1 The New-Review, Rofbwrg, Of Tues., Pec. 11. 1S1pefeP SinilOtt School lend Issue Facts Vott At MyiKt Crttk (Continued tram Page 1) gives pircnti a better opportunity to meet with principal end teach era, resulting in -individual pupil Srowtu along eaucauonai uses, umera Refuted A number of rumors have been current around Myrtle Creek, none of which have any founds, id Deller. Reoorta that all chil dren, grades one to six would be transported to tne Trl-City area is entirely falacious, be stressed. Pupils of the Myrtle Creek area will attend classes in Myrtle Creek ai at present. Another rumor Is to the effect the high school will be moved out to the Tri-Clty site. This, too, is erroneous, said Deller. The district has the making of a fine high school In Myrtle Creek and the long range program calls for de velopment of this unit. Further, he stated, recent cen sus figures, which total 1618. have increased to the point that district 19-C will not be considered a sub ject for involuntary unification, even though the electors of the state approve the school reorgan ization plan, placed on the ballot by referendum. The bill, passed by the legislature, recommends that amall school units be unified from grades one through 12 by county reorganization committees and local boundary boards. Myr tle Creek's size would preclude it from further consolidation require ments. Rumor that the district would have to buy more buses Is also untrue, as present buses owned by the district would be able to trans port, pupils two ways to the pro posed site, Deller said. It is ex pected that there will be enough space to handle the anticipated school enrollment increase next year. Sixty-five percent of the chil dren are now transported. Of the expected 115 increase, about 65 more children would nave to be transported. Steel Allocation At Stake If the bond issue falls, laid Del ler, double shifting in several grades will be necessary, as there would be at least a six-month de lay in preparing another bond elec tion. The Oregon school law pro vides that boards of education snail determine the site in a first class district. The district has been Informed by Its architects, Free man, Hayslip and Tufts, that Mur tle Creek Is on the list for con sideration by federal agenciea for allocation of steel. It would be taken off the list If the election falls, said Deller. Jim Turnbull, state school build ing consultant, has approved the Tri-Clty site. Miss Florence E. Beardsleyi director of elementary education for Oregon, recom menda that the district place no further elementary buildings on the present site. Bonding Need In School Consolidation Cited (Continued from Page 1) who recently studied the problem in wis area, it iouows cioseiy, aiso, recommendations of the Dr. T. C. Uolv report. Under the oroposed Roseburg consolidation, elementary achools for the most part would operate in their present location! for at Unit the first six grades ne said, it nas been recommended that two junior high schools be built: one some where in the Winston area; the other within the present Koseburg district. A junior high in the Wins ton area would not only give the boys and girls of grades 7, 8 and 9 an educational program oeuer suited to meet their needs, but would also relieve the overcrowded situation in Uib elementary schools. If junior high schools were built, the seventh and eighth grades would be taken out of the present elementary schools, and this would make it unnecessary to expand rural elementary buildings. With the ninth grade withdrawn from the senior nigh, It would not be necessary to increase the senior high school plant for a few years. Consolidation would make it pos sible for the elementary program In the rural areas to be properly coordinated with the high school program, and would strengthen tne financial condition oi tne enure area, he believes. The organization would be more flexible and would not be hampered by numerous ar tificial boundaries as now exist.

"Since the bureau took over man agement of some of the poorest lands five years ago, S5 for every SI invested have been returned," Bell stated. But the maximum return is still not being realized, he said, be cause not enough money Is avail able to utilize the products. "There are 150,000 acres that should be reforested, but funds are lacking," Bell explained. "Nor is the timber being harvested rapidly enough to allow pew growth." Comparing private and public lands, the speaker said that some industries are appropriating more money for the preservation of their own timber stands that has been allocated to the -bureau. Speaks From Experience Sneaking from his experience as director of the bureau in Wash ington, Bell gave Congress' re luctance to appropriate adequate funds as the main reason for the failure to obtain maximum returns. However, he stated, the hesi tancy is based on sound financial principles. Bell said the failure to allocate needed funds was "false econ omy," but three fourths of the money obtained from bureau proj ects is returned to the county and the treasury does not receive fan return. The administrator backed a plan, first introduced by Senator Guy Cordon, in which per centage of the gross receipts would be deducted for capital improve ments, fire protection and admin istration. Net returns would then be evenly divided between the fed eral government and the counties. If such a plan were enacted, Bell explained, It would insure a re turn to Congress and give them an incentive to aid in maintaining the productivity of public lands. "Such a program would allow for a more intense administrative pol icy at a time when the demand for federal stumpage is greatly In creasing," the speaker said. McGrarh Defends Caudle In Federal Tax Scandal (Continued from Pane 1) sational story about Abraham Tel telbaum that two men, one of them a frequent associate of Caudle at race tracks and other places, tried to shake Teitelbaum down last April for $500,000 under threat he would have tax troubles. The Caudle friend was Frank Nathan. Teitelbaum said Nathan and Bert K. Naster of Hollywood, Fla., asked him for the half milion dollars and claimed close connections with a Washington "clique," including Caudle, which they said looked for "soft touches." All thosen named by Teitelbaum have made denials. As McGrath testified before the investigators, '.Washington seethed with rumors that (1) Prsident Tru man was about to take some dra matic action in the situation, and (2) heads of still more top officials would roll before long. War Prisoner Issue Snarls Peace Parley (Continued from Page 1) Korean prisoners, and 12,000 to 14. 000 U. N. prisoners. Of the U. N. group he estimated 1,000 to 1.500 were British, 1,000 were from other countries and the remainder were Americans, His figures on possible Ameri can prisoners don't coincide with a recent U. N. atrocity report. Col. James M. Hanley of the U. S. Eighth army said recently the Reds have killed about 5,600 Americana after taking them pri soner. Fewer than 11,000 Ameri cans have been reported missing in action, ao Hanley's figures would leave only about 5,000 Amer icans as potential prisoners.
